abstract

We propose a simple modification of space-based gravitational wave (GW) detector optical benches which would enable the measurement of vacuum birefringence of light induced by axion dark matterthrough its coupling to electromagnetism. Specifically, we propose to change a half-wave plate by a circular polarizer. While marginally affecting the sensitivity to GW by a factor $\sqrt{2}$, we show that such an adjustment would make future detectors such as LISA, TianQin, Taiji and Big-Bang Observer the most sensitive experiments at low axion masses

  1. Identifying Monochromatic Signals in LISA and Taiji via Spectral Split: Gravitational Waves versus Ultralight Dark Matter

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Orbital motion of a space GW detector creates sideband patterns that differ between gravitational waves and ultralight dark matter, enabling discrimination by counting harmonics.

  2. Distinguishing Monochromatic Signals in LISA and Taiji: Ultralight Dark Matter versus Gravitational Waves

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Null-response interferometric channels can separate monochromatic ultralight dark matter signals from gravitational waves in LISA and Taiji, most effectively at high frequencies.
